Abstract

A retractable roof system includes a support structure, having a first vertical leg, a second vertical leg, a third vertical leg, and a fourth vertical leg extending upward from a ground surface; a first guide track extending from the first vertical leg to the second vertical leg; a second guide track extending from the third leg to the fourth leg; a first support beam connecting the first vertical leg and the third vertical leg; and a second support beam connecting the second vertical leg and the fourth vertical leg; a roof retractably secured on the support structure, the roof having: a frame having a first edge aligned with the first track and a second edge aligned with the second track; rollers connected to the first edge and the second edge to slidingly engage with the first track and the second track; and a flexible roofing material secured on the roof frame; a pulley attached to the first end of the frame; force exerted on the pulley pulls a set of the rollers towards a center of the roof, causing a first end of the frame to retract.

Description

BACKGROUND1. Field of the Invention[0001]The present invention relates generally to roof systems, and more specifically, to a retractable roof system for convenient roof retraction and height alteration.2. Description of Related Art[0002]Roof systems are well known in the art and are effective means to provide shelter. For example, FIG. 1 depicts a conventional roof system 101 having a frame 103 with legs 105a, 105b, and a roof 107 secured to the frame 103 by support beams 109a, 109b, 109c. During use, the roof 107 provides a shelter and / or a covering for the user.[0003]One of the problems commonly associated with system 101 is inflexibility. For example, system 101 is permanently placed in one position, providing cover and shelter for only that position. Altering the placement of system 101 generally requires additional equipment.[0004]Accordingly, although great strides have been made in the area of roof systems, many shortcomings remain.DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS[0005]The novel ...
